如何将C/C++代码转成webassembly

如何将C/C++代码转成webassembly
概述

WebAssembly/wasm WebAssembly 或者 wasm 是一个可移植、体积小、加载快并且兼容 Web 的全新格式

官网： WebAssembly

快速上手： I want to… - WebAssemblyhttps://webassembly.org/getting-started/developers-guide/

其实官网写的很详细，直接按照步骤学习应该是没有问题，以下是笔者经过实际操作总结下来可以跑通的经验，分享给读者。

笔者的环境：win10 + VSCode

把C/C++代码编译成WASM从而可以在浏览器或Nodejs运行时里跑，能解决性能瓶颈问题，特别是CPU密集型运算可以放在C/C++代码里实现。

安装Emscripten SDK (简称emsdk)

（笔者安装时版本为v3.1.22)
```
git clone https://gitee.com/openeuler-graphics/emsdk.git
 
```
注：官方github的代码下载太慢，我用了国内的一个克隆镜像

命令行窗口进入下载好的目录emsdk
```
git checkout main
 
.\emsdk install latest
```
执行后会出现如下提示，会自动安装node,python,java等工具

.\emsdk install latest

激活sdk
```
emsdk activate latest
```
The changes made to environment variables only apply to the currently running shell instance. Use the 'emsdk_env.bat' to re-enter this environment later, or if you'd like to register this environment permanently, rerun this command with the option --permanent.
Resolving SDK alias 'latest' to '3.1.22'
Resolving SDK version '3.1.22' to 'sdk-releases-upstream-990cee04a21caafc75955d736fb45791a7f2aeee-64bit'
Setting the following tools as active:
node-14.18.2-64bit

java-8.152-64bit
releases-upstream-990cee04a21caafc75955d736fb45791a7f2aeee-64bit

设置环境变量
```
emsdk_env.bat
```
双击脚本“emcmdprompt.bat" 建立emsdk运行环境

Setting up EMSDK environment (suppress these messages with EMSDK_QUIET=1)
Adding directories to PATH:
PATH += C:\data\private\develop\emsdk
PATH += C:\data\private\develop\emsdk\upstream\emscripten
PATH += C:\data\private\develop\emsdk\node\14.18.2_64bit\bin

Setting environment variables:
PATH = C:\data\develop\emsdk;C:\data\private\develop\emsdk\upstream\emscripten;C:\data\private\develop\emsdk\node\14.18.2_64bit\bin;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Program Files\TortoiseGit\bin;C:\Users\DELL\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\Scripts\;C:\Users\DELL\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\;C:\Users\DELL\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\Program Files\Nodejs\node-v16.18.1-win-x64;;C:\Users\DELL\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\bin
EMSDK = C:/data/develop/emsdk
EM_CONFIG = C:\data\develop\emsdk\.emscripten
EMSDK_NODE = C:\data\develop\emsdk\node\14.18.2_64bit\bin\node.exe

JAVA_HOME = C:\data\develop\emsdk\java\8.152_64bit
Clearing existing environment variable: EMSDK_PY

输入
```
emcc -v
```
出现如下提示表示emscripten环境已经安装好了

emcc (Emscripten gcc/clang-like replacement + linker emulating GNU ld) 3.1.22 (a9981ae2a7dc3c45f833d0b2202f739d87ac05c8)
clang version 16.0.0 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project 8491d01cc385d08b8b4f5dd097239ea0009ddc63)
Target: wasm32-unknown-emscripten
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: C:\data\develop\emsdk\upstream\bin

编译C/C++代码为WASM

新建一个C代码文件hello.c, 代码如下
```
#include 
 
int main() {
    printf("Hello World\n");
    return 0;
}
```
双击脚本“emcmdprompt.bat" 进入emsdk运行环境命令行，目录切换到C代码路径下，运行命令如下：
```
emcc hello.c -o hello.html
```
执行成功后，生成如下文件

为了测试这个wasm，我们需要部署到一个web服务里，笔者使用nodejs和koa作为web框架来发布，新建代码文件index.js,代码如下：
```
const Koa = require("koa");
const static = require("koa-static");
const path = require('path');
const app = new Koa();
    
//static file
app.use(
    static(path.join(__dirname, "/static/"), {
    maxage: 10080000,
    })
);
 
app.use((ctx) => {
    console.log(`Not Found:${ctx.URL}`);
    ctx.throw(404);
});
    
const port = 3000;
app.listen(port, () => {
      console.log(`web app started, listening at ${port}`);
});
  
```
将刚才hello.wasm,hello.html,hello.js三个文件复制到static目录下，运行node index.js

在浏览器里输入地址: http://127.0.0.1:3000/hello.html,可看到如下页面

实际上hello.js做了一层代码封装，使用了变量Module作为wasm的对象代理，具体细节读者不妨自行研究其代码。

JS调用C函数

新建hello2.c文件，内容如下
```
#include 
#include 
 
int main() {
    printf("Hello World\n");
    return 0;
}
 
#ifdef __cplusplus
#define EXTERN extern "C"
#else
#define EXTERN
#endif
 
EXTERN EMSCRIPTEN_KEEPALIVE void myFunction(int argc, char ** argv) {
    printf("MyFunction Called\n");
}
```
双击脚本“emcmdprompt.bat" 进入emsdk运行环境命令行，目录切换到C代码路径下，运行命令如下：
```
emcc hello2.c -o hello2.html -s "EXPORTED_RUNTIME_METHODS=['ccall']"
```
此处第一次编译会消耗较长时间，需耐心等待。

编译成功后，将hello2.html,hello2.js,hello2.wasm文件拷贝nodejs代码的static目录下

将hello2.html文件做下修改，修改如下
```
      ......
      ......
      Module.setStatus('Downloading...');
      window.onerror = function(event) {
        // TODO: do not warn on ok events like simulating an infinite loop or exitStatus
        Module.setStatus('Exception thrown, see JavaScript console');
        spinnerElement.style.display = 'none';
        Module.setStatus = function(text) {
          if (text) console.error('[post-exception status] ' + text);
        };
      };
      var myFunc = () => {
          alert("check console");
          const result = Module.ccall(
            "myFunction", // name of C function
            null, // return type
            null, // argument types
            null // arguments
          );
      };
      Module.postRun.push(myFunc);
    
```
启动nodejs, 在浏览器输入地址：http://127.0.0.1:3000/hello2.html

打开控制台，可以看到C函数MyFunction被调用了。
